Forced drama

Also known as "manufactured drama," forced drama is the writing technique of creating contrived circumstances and events, or unnatural character behaviors, for the purpose of easily getting emotional reactions from the audience.
It is seen as a transparent, amateurish method of getting an audience emotionally invested in a work.
: In episode 19, why didn't Bob tell Dave about that deal? He tells Dave everything and has no reason to lie. Isn't that out of character?
: Yeah, it was so the writers could force drama by dragging out Dave's misunderstanding for the next couple episodes.

: Her crush dumped her, her puppy died, then she was struck by lightning in the middle of her parents' divorce after being told she has cancer. Am I expected to fall for this forced drama and actually feel sad?

Forced Censorship

When a Kidz Bop song uses horribly inaccurate, cringy lyrics to cover up swear words.
Man have you heard some of the forced censorship Kidz Bop has been including lately? I heard them say: "Walk up to the club like: "Whaddup I got a hit song- I'm so pumped I got some clothes from the Thrift Shop."

Using the force

Forced drinking

Its the equivalent of face rape with alcohol. A large man (like a Porridgeotemus) renders you helpless with a rear position choke hold, executed by one arm, whilst simultaneously pushing a full glass (usually red wine) between your lips. He then tips the glass at a c. 130 degree angle, giving only 2 options - drink or be wet.
Porridgeotemus: hey buddy, fancy a glass of wine?
Man: no thanks Porridgeotemus, I'm driving tonight
Porridgeotemus: TAKE THAT TAKE THAT TAKE THAT
Man (choking violently): ohhhhh nooooo, I hate forced drinking
